Introduction
Na
ative therapy is one of the prominent instils that are given to the care approach in the modern context. In fact, the basic assumptions of the na
ative therapy are guided by the principle of belief in na
atives that are structured around the experiences of the individuals. There is a specific degree of faith, which people tend to show in the na
atives, which they have formed. In terms of quality care provided, the perception of na
ative therapy works on identifying the belief systems of individuals.
It can be sourced from the cultural systems, experiences from the past as well as from some specific phase of life that either did not go well or in it, individuals could learn about the process of elation, the psychological alleviation that they required to live. In the studies selected for the cu
ent review, the conceptual frameworks of shared experiences and metaphoric assumptions of the term ‘therapy’ and ‘na
ation’ are applied to enhance further the process of understanding the rationale of na
atives in therapy.
Literature Review
As per the selection of the studies, Toolis and Hammack (2015) take up selected cases studies of homeless youth and examine the development of the positivity in their behavioural approach. The criteria of this research remain centred over the concept of difficulties faced by the homeless youth. There is a general criticism that they have to confront in order to survive.
This criticism ranges from their day-to-day encounter with people along with the structuring of their experiences around these activities. The a
angement of na
ative to such youth functions such as catalyst to strengthen their belief in the consistency of hardships i.e. at no point of life, they are made to realise that they are free from any kind of existential crisis.
Additionally, the researchers examine the concept of na
ative a
angement given to the homeless youth in the light of the link between the agency based support and the resilience that the youth has made. In spite of the help received upon the grounds of administration, the youth recognised a specific hold over the power that kept their resilience intact and it as based over the assumption of the fighting figures that either they had heard about or they had seen them on their own.
In other words, it was quite intriguing to perceive their belief system, which was too strong to be penetrated by any external source about the difficulties that they had faced so far. At the same time, the participants in the case study rejected the application of criminal identity over the homeless youth, as they had not seen it happening eventually.
Thus, they believed in their own system of na
ation, which proved that the verification of na
ative is established by the personal experiences of the individuals. However, the findings of the study are limited to the close range of homeless youth and how they form strong na
atives over their personal experiences.
In the same context, Green and Myrick (2014) projected the phase-based integration of the na
atives that the adolescents make up during the traumatic experiences. There is a strong and well-rooted perception that traumatic events in the early phase of life leave lasting impressions. The formed na
atives of this period stay with the person for a long time.
Besides, a proper therapeutic approach is required to touch the sensitive parts of the na
atives from the past. The researchers examined the efficacy of the play-based activities over the selected participants with a view to see the intensity of the na
atives framed during the trauma of the earlier life of the adolescents.
Additionally, the therapists may intervene by having effective mental health based protocols applied to the understanding of trauma initially. It implies that the traumatic phase should be given careful examination, which will lead to exploration of the formed na
atives in the lives of the adolescents. The trauma and the play-based integration to activities would yield positive results.
This is more like having the intervention, which is linked with the retrieval of the past in a careful manner through playful activities. The standpoint of the confrontation, as per the findings of the study, relate to the handling of the trauma with an ‘improved na
ative’, seeing the positive side of life at this later stage as adult.
The 3 phase based program that the researchers develop is one of the integral parts of the proposed means of therapy. However, like the previous study above, there is a close range of participants, which is selected as adolescents to apply the selected framework of research; the findings are applicable to the variety of cases that surge up with different scales of intensity.
The examples of the same may range from sudden traumatic phase due to an unforeseen condition or by the sudden demise of someone in life can also incur severe state of negative state of...
